Methodology & honest limits
- Source: the CFPB/FFIEC HMDA Data Browser — every U.S. mortgage lender reports the note rate on each originated loan. We pool the Chicago–Naperville–Evanston, IL metropolitan area, keep originated purchase loans on a primary 1-unit home, and take the median per product.
- Retrospective, not live: HMDA is annual and lags ~1 year, so these are 2024 medians — a solid picture of what the area actually paid, not today’s quote. Today’s rates are on the live terminal and the RallyRates Index.
- Neutral: no lender pays to appear or to rank; lenders are ordered by real loan volume.
- Not advice: informational only — not an offer of credit, not a substitute for a lender’s own quote for your scenario.
